I told you to hook up with him that night!

Grace

I didn’t want to come on too strong.

Morgan

Yeah, Mav seems like a guy who enjoys the chase.

Emily

Hey, it’s the twenty-first century. We’re allowed to chase the people we’re interested in every once in a while. ;)

Grace

Maverick definitely seems like a guy worth chasing.

Morgan

Totally. You could always hire Reeves to take you out. It might make Maverick jealous.

Emily

What do you mean “hire Reeves”?

Good question. I was wondering the same thing.

Morgan

You don’t know?! Apparently, Reeves is like a male escort or something. It’s super hush-hush, so I don’t know all the details.

Grace

If it’s hush-hush, how do I ask Reeves to take me to make Maverick jealous?

Emily

I never said I was the criminal mastermind behind the operation. It's just a suggestion.

Grace

You mean like how you suggested I slip Maverick my number the other night?!

Emily

Yes! That was amazing lol Has he called yet?

Grace

No ??

Morgan

He will, don’t worry. You’re gorgeous, and Maverick would be lucky to have you.

My nose scrunches as another text comes through.
